Question

Solve the equation: x2 - 12x = -36

Answer 1

Use Quadratic Formula

Answer 2

Just pull over the 36 to the other side:

So you get x^2 -12x+36 = 0
Then use quadratic formula.

Answer 3

try and make it look like Ax^2+Bx+C=0

Answer 4

ok i understand x^2 -12x+36 = 0
but i have to use factoring to solve it bcs i have never learned quads yet

Answer 5

x2-12x= -36
x2-12x+36=0
(x-6) (x-6)=0

Answer 6

now solve for x which is 6

Answer 7

use FOIL to go back and look if the factoring was correct

Answer 8

thank you
